Arcturus's Review of Holosun LE221 Elite Dual Laser Sight
I own two LE221s laser sights in green. As a reference I am comparing performance to an L3 Harris Antipal-C pointer/illuminator which I have used for 2-3 years with no complaints.
Originally purchased the Antipal-C in 2022 because its L3, well designed, proven track record and made in USA. Ideally, Holosun which is based in Orange County, CA will pivot manufacturing to Taiwan - or any other place besides PRC.
The L3 laser is housed in a rugged polymer body and houses a larger diameter laser pointer, whereas the Holosun is housed in an absolutely bombproof! cast titanium housing and casts a thinner pointer beam, which to my eye I is more precise. The Holosun heavier than the Antipal - and this model does not include an illuminator, which I now prefer. I found the switch on the L3 busy and not intuitive whereas the Holosun is a very simple switch that you can read looking forward towards target, vs having to glance on top of the Antipal to switch between pointer power or other function. I combine the LE221 set up with a SF 640v IR+W light and together it is a better set up for me better than a integrated illuminator + pointer.
Reduced by one star only due to origin of manufacture.
